Is there a way to make a JAR a global resource in CPI like a Script Collection for instance?

Hello community members,

This is the first time I ask a question here so hopefully I'll do that correctly 🙂

My issue is that I need to reuse Groovy classes, that I build for a special purpose, in many different packages containing custom TPM Groovy mappings.  To include the pre-compiled JAR in an IFlow as local ressource is not an issue - this works very well. Today I was searching for a way to make my first JAR available as a global ressource.
The only option that allowed me to upload the library was the CPI Script Collection but this seems to allow classless JARs, containing multiple scripts, only. When I tried to run my mapping with the Script Collection added the test ended with class not found exceptions.

Does anyone know of a way to achieve my request or do I have to wait until SAP offers a way to make JARs globally available in the CPI ecosystem?

Best regards,
Mathias

Hi Mathias,

Did you solve your problem and could you maybe share your solution? I'm in the same situation as you were and would like to share some JAR-libraries between different iFlows.

Hello Jacob,

Unfortunately not. I think I will need to ask SAP support for this possibility. On the other hand it's a bit frustrating that adding your own JARs to an IFlow causes a warning. In some situations - especially with the stuff I am working on - it's the only solution to get things done.
